treatment

well, i just bought the WS-version for +ACQ-15 at the local wal-mart about an hour ago.

:)

ohhhhh, the sequel.

nope. haven't seen it, yet.

sam goody and suncoast ( i think they're sister-companies or something) both have sucktacular pricing. Selling it for $30 is highway-robbery considering the poor job Manga did on the release, i.e. poor vhs-quality video-transfer and exclusion of the excellent english-dubs of the OVA.

You should've gotten it from Bestbuy (ironic since I think bestbuy owns those two stores above), CircuitCity, Gamestop, Electronic Boutique, and Software Etc because they all sell it for $20 or less.

Yes.

Disc-2 was kinda meh on their serious/action-episodes, but was totally rockin' on the comedy-episodes. Haven't received Disc-3, yet.

The english-dubs was meh, even after two discs. Gotta listen to it in Japanese-dubs.

I just completed Dai-Guard last week and am prolly gonna write my review this weekend.

The english-dubs gets better in the later discs and this is one show that ADV was totally successful in being converting to American-centric humor and situations.

The ending was kinda meh, tho.

It's been kinda tight for quality-releases this year, tho I'm fairly impressed with ADV so far.

This year's been pretty good for ADV title-releases. Not only that, but the quality of the ADV english-dubbing had dramatically improved on most of the titles! A few of their better dubbed releases this year:

-- CatGirl NukuNuku

-- DaiGuard complete

-- Excel complete

-- Rahxephon

-- Mazinkaiser

-- Sakura Wars (ova and tv)

-- Colorful

-- Full Metal Panic (borderline-dubs, but great new show)

-- Voices of a Distant Star

-- Steel Angel Kurumi 2

If only they'd hurry up and release Azumanga Daioh and Nadesico-movie this year.

I also like Pioneer for Chobits and Mahoromatic dvd's and OST's. The boxsets for El Hazard and re-release of Tenchi OVA single-discs were good, too.

Bandai's best title so far this year (imho) is Please Teacher and Love Hina Again's release is scheduled next week.

props to Funimation for completing Fruits Basket release and TokyoPop for GTO. Tho TokyoPop's pulled a stupid with Initial D.

Much thanks to SynchPoint for finally completing FLCL. Now if only they can speed up on their other good title "I'm Gonna be an Angel".

Much thanks to VIZ for finally releasing Maison Ikkoku on r1 dvd!

Invision has quite a bunch of very neat features. Just check your board-settings options.

Since an otherwise good thread (the collections-thread in Toys) was recently closed, I like to understand if the new board-settings such as:

Do you wish to view images in posts, such as smilies and posted images? YES/NO

is broken already or is really not that effective of a board-feature at all. Especially for 56k dial-up members.

Just wondering about this.

It's pretty good for a 30-minute short.

but it's really short.

hopefully the artist does more. it has alot of potential.

the one and only...

treatment

there can be only one....

hmm. i'm a poor bastard compared to you guys.

my current yammie-inventory:

1/60 = 8 (two strikes, two supers, two cf's, and one max-1a & hikaru-1a.

1/48 = 1 (one hikaru-1a)

plans for the next year or two or three:

1/60 = rest of the line

1/48 = rest of the line

1/72 = rest of the line

My meager shelf-toys.

detailed, sorta. click for bigger images.

confirmed. I'm at PST and mw's clock is two hours behind.

sweet!
